IPL 2019: DD vs CSK: Preview, where to watch, timing, live streaming, key battles, probable XI: Delhi, Chennai look to gain more

Delhi Capials and Chennai Super Kings will eye a second win
IPL 2019 | Preview | New-look DC ready for CSK challenge

New Delhi, March 25: Both Delhi Capials and Chennai Super Kings began their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 campaign with resounding wins. Chennai overwhelmed Royal Challengers Bangalore by seven wickets while Capitals trounced Mumbai Indians by 37 runs. Now, the two protagonists will face each other at the Feroz Shah Kotla on Tuesday (March 26) and a number of factors will make this match a must-see affair. The MyKhel preview.

1. The Pant factor

1. The Pant factor

Till Rishabh Pant arrived, the match between Capitals and Mumbai Indians was in balance. But he changed the course with a whirlwind fifty as Capitals transformed a middling total into an improbable one. The Mumbai bowlers including Jasprit Bumrah were taken to cleaners by Pant in an innings littered with several unorthodox shots. Of course the Chennai bowlers are battle hardened veterans who know how to counter each and every eventuality on the field. It will be a sight to behold Pant taking on the Chennai bowlers.

2. Key battle - Suresh Raina vs Kagiso Rabada

2. Key battle - Suresh Raina vs Kagiso Rabada

It is not for nothing that Raina has been labelled as the Mr Consistent in IPL. At Chepauk, the left-handed batsman crossed 5000 IPL runs in his 177th game - all for the Chennai outfit. He is an assured presence in the middle who can play the dual role of enforcer and anchor. But he may meet his match on Tuesday in Rabada, the quick from South Africa, who had an excellent game against the Mumbai Indians. Rabad can touch 150 clicks quite effortlessly and Raina will have to be on top of his game to counter the Protea pacer. It will certainly have a say in the match.

3. Chennai's experience

Right from their skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Chennai have a number of cricketers who have seen and weathered many battles. It's their strength too. They have a man for almost all situations. They know how to win matches and they don't mind looking ugly for that. Compared to Chennai, Delhi are way short of experience but they have youth and exuberance of Pant, skipper Shreyas Iyer and opener Prithvi Shaw. It will be a sparkling contest between the old guard and the Generation Y.
